In this day and age, most large consulting firms live by their reputation, not the work performed.

Rules
Reminder that the rules for lemmy.ca also apply here. See the sidebar on the homepage:
McKinsey is the cause of a lot of issues...
It's all 20 something Ivy Leaguers that corporations pay a lot of money to be told the best path forward is:
Layoffs, cut benefits, give executives bonuses
Of course, they dabble in other shit as well.
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/McKinsey_%26_Company#Controversies
When people complain about how capitalism is fucking shit up, there's usually some McKinsey employees (again, dumb rich 20 something's straight out of college) way back at the beginning of the problem telling everyone to do the thing that caused the problems.
They do an absolute dog shit job of helping, unless the only people you care about helping are the wealthiest. McKinsey always comes up with solutions that make the wealthy more money.
The wealthy already know those "solutions" they just need a third party to suggest it so when it hurts everyone else the wealthy can act like even the experts couldn't see the obvious downside coming.
And the truly horrific part is that their advice further guts the civil service. That leaves us in a position where we have to hire fake experts as a substitute for the actual experts we used employ.
The system working as they intend.
This is the best summary I could come up with:
Last year, a Radio-Canada investigation found that the amount of money McKinsey & Company earns from federal contracts exploded after Prime Minister Justin Trudeau came to power.
Her audit also found that in 10 of 28 competitive contracts — which were worth $13.7 million — there was insufficient documentation to properly support awarding them to McKinsey & Company.
Hogan's report evaluated that standing offer and determined it was "weak and did not demonstrate that McKinsey & Company would provide a unique service.
In her press conference Tuesday, CBC asked Hogan if she thought there was a perceived conflict interest between the Liberal government and McKinsey related to the firm's former managing director, Dominic Barton.
"Federal contracting and procurement policies exist to ensure fairness, transparency and value for Canadians — but they only work if they are followed," Hogan said in a statement.
"We are committed to protecting the integrity of procurement and expect public servants in all departments to operate at the highest standard and prioritize value for money for all Canadians," he said.
